Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Cottonseed Handling at Gins: Production Research Report No. 66 Although cotton has been grown for its fiber for many centuries, the seed has been generally used commercially only in relatively recent times. It is reported that in ancient times the Hindus and the Chinese, using the principle of the mortar and the pestle, developed crude methods for obtaining oil from cottonseed. They used the oil for their lamps and fed the remainder of the pressed seed to their cattle. For many centuries, however, the use of cottonseed in India and China never developed much beyond that primitive stage. The first cottonseed oil known to have been produced in America was exhibited before the American Philosophical Society in 1768. It was produced on a very small, experimental scale and was generally regarded as a curiosity. Little effort appears to have been made to produce additional oil until after the invention of the cotton gin in 1793. The increase in cotton production that followed this invention made the use of cottonseed a challenge. During the first part of the 19th century, mills in Europe began to crush Egyptian cottonseed on a limited scale. However, American chemists were primarily responsible for transforming cottonseed into useful products. Before the crushing industry was developed, cottonseed had no cash value except the limited quantities sold for planting-seed. Small quantities of seed were used for fertilizer and some was fed to livestock. Raw cottonseed, however, has limited value as livestock feed. Most seed was left at the gins. Disposal was a serious problem; some States passed laws prohibiting gins from accumulating large quanti t1es on their premises and from dumping seed into streams.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Research on Cottonseed and Cottonseed Products at the Southern Utilization Research and Development Division: A Bibliography of Publications, With Abstracts Only a little more than a century ago cottonseed was generally regarded as a waste product of the cotton industry, to be disposed of at some trouble and expense. So radically has this sit nation changed, however, that today the nine to 11 billion pounds of cottonseed produced annually in the United States return approximately $2 50 million to the grower. After processing, the products attain a value of about $1. 5 billion at the consumer level. Although production of cottonseed is generally considered incidental to the production of lint cotton, the seed is an item in the livelihood of the approximately 2, 300, 000 persons living on farms on which cotton is grown. Some 418, 000 workers not living on cotton farms are em ployed there at the peak of the season. In addition to these, the cotton gins employ some 51, 000 workers, and cottonseed oil mills another 12, 000 during operating periods. To these numbers can be added 3, 000 more employed in plants manufacturing shortening and cooking oils. Research has been largely responsible for converting this erstwhile waste product into one of great value, both from the economic standpoint and as a source of products to meet the needs of humanity, directly or indirectly. Many individuals, industrial firms, independent research organizations, universities, and state and Federal agencies have participated in the research responsible for these advances, and none more vigorously than the cottonseed industry itself through the National Cottonseed Products Association and other representative organizations.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Studies of Economies in Transformation No. 19. Provides comprehensive data for evaluating market reforms in the states of the former Soviet Union. This is the fourth annual compilation of statistical data on the rapidly evolving economies of the former Soviet Union (FSU). It is an indispensable reference, providing even more comprehensive data than the 1994 handbook for evaluating market reforms in the FSU. It converts economic data used by socialist systems to the market-based system of national accounts and incorporates new national currencies in the data. The volume contains both English and Russian versions of the text. Decisionmakers have easy access to key statistics on the 15 independent states through the handbook's comparative tables, which provide cross-country data arranged by subject. Topics include production rates, human resources, and external trade. Country tables give detailed information on essential statistical indicators such as public finance, monetary statistics, employment, and labor. Technical notes and a detailed annex give helpful background information on the statistics. A complete bibliography is provided.
